Intelligence, conceiving it to possess more,, interest at this time than any other matter. It is most satisfactory to obserVe, that the elections are passing off in alniost every place without those vio lations of peace arid order, which are generally too prevalent on such occasions of popular excitement: and this cirestmstance strongly proves the extinction of party, and the universal improvement in the feelings of all classes which has taken place within the last few years. It is not less satisfactory to obierve, that the electors in general are manifesting their.sound sense and right'principles, by the choice of their-Represen tatives. In the City - of London and the Borough, indeed, the choice of the electors does not seem ,likely entirely to fall on men whom we should have vishea to have seen placed in - the distinguished situation of 'Repre . sentatives of those places : we shall ever consider that the City of London will be humiliated by having Mr. WAmtstAN as one of its Members ; and although Mr. WooD may have rendered the City some services, for which he may he entitled to the applause of his fellow citizens, we can never think that he is the de .. scription of person who should be selected to repre %Ply. them in the House of Commons. The insigni :, ficaut'figure he has mode in Parliament s affords a sad contrast with that of the Representatives of Some of the other commercial towns of the Kingdom, the im portance of which, however great, bears but a small proportion to the paramount importance of the trade; and interests of the City of London. It is now too late. to prevent one, at leak," of these men ,being returned for the . City, which we must re peal, would not-have been the case if some other gen tlemen had come forward, possessing qualifications as conspicuous for the honour of representing London, those of Alderman ' THOMPSON and Mr. WARD. Thenumber of votes which the former Gentleman already possesses over Messrs. WAITIIMAN and :WOOD, clearly shows that the majority of the Livery- men prefer the principles which he professes ; and it is therefore reasonable to conclude that if other Gentle- Men of the same principles had stood forward, they Would have received the support of that majority. We can never therefore sufficiently lament that such men had not been found willing to undertake the arduous, but the most honourable duties of the Representation of this great City. We regret to find that Mr. PotifiLL has retired from the contest in the . Borough, and, that t onse •quently, Mr. CALVERT and Sir ROBERT WILSON will be returned to-day. Liverpool h a s done itself honor by annihilating the trumpery opposition which recently sprung up to Mr. HustussoN re-electioil, and by returning that Right .flonou table Gentleman..to represent it in the British Senate, and to continue his valuable labours for the benefit of the Country at 'large. The AT " It NEY - GINERAt shin& high abOve the other Candidates for the honor of representing the University of Cambridge, and we await with some anxiety the result of. the Poll for this seat of learning and. science.. Alas, poor BROITIIAM ! thou art amongst the victims of false hopes and false promises, and we would fain 'offer thee consolation in thy trying difficol , ties ;if thou, theinost loyal and constitutional o f a ll t h e limbs of the Law—thou, the protector of injured in nocence—the diampion of, virtue—the model of consistency, be subject to the whims and caprices of * false friends, who . shall be free ? Thou, whose life lute been untainted by Radicalism—who never apolo gized for vice one day, anti called forth the vengeance of the laws upon it on another—who never held a' brief, except owthe side of the oppressed—who would rather havi "died, than, bave insulted the Sovereign or libelled his Mihilltirs--even thou art not free from the troubles Of this wicked world ! Would that we could Put an an d to thy suit rings, and finish thy tribulations; would that we could t bring thee out of thy distress and extingoish thy diffieulties. To see thee stiffer in = th e cause of freedom, and know that 'thou pitiest and sigliest of liberty,,—to feel that thy anxiety to - recover 4be lost, independence of Westniore !' y ttl, has beinviiktimefolly undervalued—that thou /last been abused by the Newspapers, and parse.. ROW by the Wieked'corruptionists, for thy laudable Ambition to omit Westmoreland from the grasp ' " P . .1 .4* of a set of loyalists,. who would fight up to their neck for the present wretched Government, and rotten constitution—is enough to rouse one's blood ; and it is still more deplorable to see that no body will come forward to support thee with gold and silver, when thou - offerest to supply brass for the whole country ; and that after the recommendation of thy friend at the Crown and Anchor, for thine electors to wear sprigs of broom as their emblem, most of them had brushed over to the other side—that instead of being at their post they are slumbering on their pillows.—We are at a loss to know how we can " ad minister to thy mind diseased." We would not willingly remind thee of thv numerous miseries ; hut who can help condoling with thee upon the wholesale ratting of thy once staunch friends ? Who can avoid participat ing in thy affliction at the fact of forty-nine of thy tried men, having wilfully and maliciously, and of malice aforethought, published their recantation, and declared their intention to rote against thee, an ex ample which will be but too generally followed. We can only implore thee to bear thy troubles patiently, and with fortitude, for thou art acting rightly. The LOWTHERS are a wicked race, abounding in the good things of this world. They have bought the men of Westmoreland over to their cause by benevo lence ; they have corrupted men's hearts by their loy alty, and they have monopolized the good wishes of the country by doing justice. By the invidious prac tice of paying their debts, they have taken a shameful Advantage of their opponents, and they have broken in upon the purity of election, by defraying their own expences; but though thou wilt be defeated by such men and by such means, thou haat the consolation of clear conscience upon such matters, and this will bear thee triumphantly through the cares of the world. But in reverting to the disgraceful practice of the LOWTHERS, and of the Blues in general, thou gayest, indeed, rightly in thy declaration to the Freeholders, or rather to the Electors, " that the uttermost stforts of thine enemies have only served to prove more clear . ly that HE loses his labour, who tries to gain over the Blues." But thanks to the good that springs out of evil, there is still consolation in the prospect of levelling all distinc tions, and we congratulate thee at all events on the certainty, that if the LOWTHERS and their friends are all Blue at the BEGINNING of the contest, thou and thy friends will look Blue enough at the FINISH. French Papers to Monday morning have heel received. These Papers contain two Addresses from the Pre sident of the General Assembly of the Greek nation, dated at Epidaurus, on the 28th of April, relative to the appoiritment of a Provisional Committee for the management of public affairs. These interesting docu ments breathe the language of resignation, and speak home to the hearts of those who can feel for the woes of others. They will be found in another column. - A commanication has been mad• to the Greek Committee, in Paris, that the number of women and children, captured by the Turks in Western Greece, was so great, that they were sold lower than the cheapest cattle : and it is stated that 40,000 francs have sent for the redemption of as many as this would effect. The Etoile contains an address presented by the inhabitants of Taganrog, to the late Empress ELIZA BETH, on her departure from that place, in whiCh they stated their intention to erect,, by voluntary subscrip tion, a monument to the memory of the Emperor ALEXANDER; and her Majesty's reply, expressive of her approbation, and subscribing 10,000 rubles to wards that object. The Chamber of Peers have decided, s had been anticipated, that a supplementary investigation was necessary, before they could proceed further in Otivß,op's affair. At Rouen, the trial of three persons, arrested in consequence of the disturbances in that town, has taken place. Tivo of them were acquitted for want of evi dence, as the soldiers who arrested them could not be found. The third, who was proved to have been in the midst of the mob, and to have uttered seditious cries, , was •condemned to six months' imprisonment,. and a fine of 100 francs FAINCH Fu —PA s, June 10. —Five per Cents, 97f. 35e. ; Throe per Cents, 64f. 75e. ; Rentes de Naples, 72f. 36C. ; Royal Spanish Loan, 47f. ie. Quebec Papers of the beginning of May were re ceived yesterday. Much satisfaction is expressed at the orders which had been received in Canada from the Colonial Department for proceeding with the mili tary works at various places, in the upper and lower provinces, by which employment will be afforded to a large number of persons. _ _ _ The mercantile distress in Quebec and Montreal appears to have been much exaggerated. The Legislature of Lower Canada had been pro rogued. We have received this morning German Papers of the '7th instant. The Journal de Frankfort, contains further extracts from the Oriental Spectator, giving an account of a Tuscan brigantine, La Libia, having been carried by a Greek Pirate vessel, into the desert port of Biitulo, and pillaged of her valuable cargo.' The Allgemeine Zeitung has a long article under date of Rome, 21st of May, relative to the affairs of the Holy See, and its Church Patronage. Banditti in several parts of the Pope's dominions, appear to have committed some most atrocious crimes. We subjoin a Postcript, relative to t h e health of the King of Naples. P. S. We have various accounts of the illness of the King of pg,as ; some some say it is the gout, others a paralytic stroke, that has deprived hint of the use of one side. The Duke of LUCCA WllO was expected here soon on his return from Naples, is said to have written that he shall remain for the present at Naples, on account of the illness of the King, who is his uncle on the mother's aide.. The Neapolitan Legation is said to have reeeived news by a warier, that the King is better, Letters were also received in town yesterday from the Ma uritius dated the Ist of Mardi, but they brought no news. A severe hurricane had been ex.. perieneed at the end of February. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. DrVONI .

OItINOTICAT), IH NIIATTICItiarHOWA KO AND (1111814 BANKRUPTS, His Loansnie had now to decide this matter against Mr. Grim stead: It appeared that Mr. G. had been introduced to Mr. Gibbs by a Mr. Walsh, and, looking at Mr. W.'S evidence, it seemed that Mr. Grimstead was a person to whom caution might be given; only one person, however, imputed weakness to Mr. G., and he did not carry it very far. Every transaction appeared regular until the November, 1819. At that time items were entered in a book, and a letter Written to Mr. Grirnitead. With respect to that book, his Lordship hid felt totally unable to reconcile the dozen answers that Mr. GriMstead had given regarding it ; sometimes he had denied having ever seen the book, at other times lie confessed that he had ; he had not examined it, and again he had examined it, but not with requisite attention, and so on. His Lordship, however, was satisfied that Mr. Grimstead had not only seen the book, but that it had been in his possession for a long time, and that he had shown it to persons, and discussed its contents. If there were no Usury Laws, Mr. Grimstead in a Court of Law, by the production of that very book alone, could at once obtain a verdict for the money he claims, together with ten or eleven per cent. interest. Looking at the evidence of Mr. Grimstead, Mr. Gibbs, the documents, and the evidence of other persons examined, his Lordship really thought that no Judge Could sum up this case favorably to Mr. Grimstead, nor any Jury say, with justice, that this case was untainted with usury. Mr. Holm then submitted that his clients, the assignee*, ought to have their costs. His LORDSHIP considered them entitled to costs as against Mr. Grimstead. Mr. TRESI.OVE added that there were six petitions. Mr. HART, fur Mr. Grimstead, hoped the gentlemen did not mean to ask for the costs of all those petitions. Mr. Homo: certainly did mean to ask for the costs of them all. His clients had been uniformly right; the Commissioner* had, in the very first instance, refused to admit the proof; and if the as signees were not now to have costs, it would have been better for them to have allowed the proof in the first instance. Mr. HART thought it unnecessary for Mr. Horne to be so zealous: when a man was ruined, it was a matter of indifference whether he was ruined for 10,000/.or for 100,0001. _ _ . _ Mr. HORN'''. hoped Mr. Hirt did not mean to address this ob servation to his private feelings; no man could lament misfor tunes more than himself; but where he stood he felt bound to dis charge his duty, and to insist, on the part of his clients, for their costs, after having been dragged through almost all th e Courts i n the kingdom, and having been uniformly successful. Many had been ruined by the bankruptcy as well as Mr. Orimstead, but that was not his (Mr. Horne's) fault. His Lounsitte said, if Mr. Hart found that he could offer any thing against the claim of costs, he would be glad to hear him on Saturday, or on any day he pleased. Mr. HART thanked his Lordship.

WINDSOR, JUNE 13.—This afternoon his Ma jesty and Visitors, with his Suite, left the Royal Lodge in three pony phaetons and on horseback, for their customary airing in the Great Park. Last evening Prince and Princess Esterhazy, Earl and Countess Lieven and their Daughter, Earl and Countess and Lady Georgiana Bathurst, and Lord Egremom, arrived at the Royal Lodge, on a visit to ins Majesty. This evening his Majesty will entertain his distin guished visitors with a sumptuous entertainment at the Royal Lodge. The Private Band are ordered to be in attendance. The Duke of York's indisposition arose from a cold, with which he was afflicted previous to his Royal Highness's going 'to attend the Ascot Heath Races, where, we regret to say, it was increased, which brought, on an oppression at the chest, and which compelled his Royal Highneis 'to be confined to his house on Monday and yesterday. We are, however, happy to say, his Royal Highness was not prevented from attending to military business, with Sir Herbert Taylor, his Military Secretary, the greater part of both days. His Royal Highness had appointed to hold a levee yesterday, which w as i n consequence postponed. Sir Henry Raiford attend e d th e Royal Duke, and, yesterday morning, on visiting his Royal Highness, reported that he had enjoyed a good night, and was better. A letter from `Windsor, dated June 12, says, " His Majesty yesterday afternoon, arrived at the Castle. and inspected the progress made during the past week, which occupied his attention upwards of an hour. He then returned to the Great Park, and continued driving about the most shady parts until near seven o'clock ; and in the evening his Majesty had a select dinner party.' Lord Normanhy, who was named as likely to offer himself for Newcastle, is in Italy; and he is about to join the Duke of Devonshire. " Dnblin," exclaimed a green orator in Clayton square, the other night, "is afloat." " Then,' said a wag, " I suppose it will be here the next tide 1" Albion. The anxiety of Sir Robert Wilson and Mr. Calvert to bring the Borough contest to a close is not quite consistent with their avowed attachment to free discus lion ; but patriotism is a mighty inconvenient kind of thing, when patriots have to pay the piper. There are said to be no less than 500 attorneys em ployed in the Westmoreland contest ; of course the candidates and constituents must witness purity and economy to their hearts' content. Ellen, Viscountess Strangford, whose death we an nounced a few days ago as having taken place at St. Petersburgh on the 26th ult., was youngest daughter of the late Sir Thomas Burgh, Bart. of Marble Hill, in the County of Galway, sister to the Countess of Clanricarde and to the Lady of Sir H. Tichbourne, Bart., and aunt to the Marquess of Clanricarde, the Marchioness of Sligo, and the Countesses of Howth and Dysart. Seven children, two of them the issue of . . _ her Ladyship's first marriage, are left to mourn the loss of a most amiable, exemplary, and devoted mother. In the same Court to which we alluded the day before _yesterday, in regard to deductions of cause s from effects, some strange phenomena were some time ago discovered in the persons of two of its members. One of them was a gentleman of property, with very little to do in the way of his profession ; the other with abundance of employment, had but little property ; on which contrast it was observed, that one had effects ithout causes, and the other causes without effects. The banking pretniSes of Sir Peter Pole Bart. Thornton, Free, and Co., were brought to the hammer. Yesterday, by Mr. . W iintwiley, at the Auction Mart, the great room of which place was crowded to excess on the occasion. Among others, we noticed several eminent monied men, who seemed to take great in terest in the sale. The following is a descnption of the property, and the result :—A freehold house, No. 1, Bartholomew-lane, opposite the Bank of England, with every convenience suitable for the business of a banker, land4ax redeemed ; and two leasehold houses, Nos. 1 and 2, Capel-court, adjoining, held for an un expired term of four years; at a rental 2101. per ann., and 101. 10s. for redeemed land-tax, was, after a smart competition, knocked down for the sum of 8,9504 SALE OF THE ARDLEIGif PARK:ESTATE, ESSEX.. —The extensive freehold estate, known as Ardleigh Park, near Colchester, comprising the Manor of Mar tell's Hall, with the quit-rents, perquisite's, and fines thereof, a family residence, with attached and detached offices, sundry farms, farm-yards, agricultural buildings, cottages, gardens planted with fruit -trees, and nearly 902 acres of amble, pasture, wood, and plantation land, abounding with game, producing (including quit rents and fines, and the estimated value of land unlet) 1,523/..165. 3d., was sold . by auction yesterday, at Gaxraway's Coffee-house, 'Change-alley, by Mr. W, Simpson, for the sum of 33,0001, VON WXBER'S FUNERAL..--The body of this lamented musician will be carried to St. Paul's on Friday next, when Mozart's Requiem will be per. formed by most of the principal singers, assisted by a powerful band and chorus. The seats erected for the Charity Children's Anniversary are left for the accom modation of the public. DR. Jomisox.—Such was Dr. Johnson's antipa thy to a democratical whig, that when one of hia par• titular friends was extolling as a model for a Member of Parliament, a highly popular character, since de ceased, Johnson burst out out into the extreme of fury and indignation, " Sir," said h e , " is a dirty Scoundrel' like the rest of his party." In speaking of modern leveller* one day to a friend, he said, « Sir, they like to pull down till it comes to themselves." Goldsmith had said very well before him, respecting general declaimers for liberty—" They call it freedom when theinselves are free.

On a former occasion, in giving our report of the proceedings of the Royal Society, we announced the reading ok a paper before that body, by the Rev. B. Powell, F.R.S., on the subject of Radiant Heat ; but stated, that we would reserve any particular notice of its contents, till we should have space to give a brief sketch of the whole investigation, of which the paper in question formed a part. This we now propose to do. Radiant heat is a term which lints been used by some philosophers, invested with a great deal of theory and mysticism, but we understand it as catpressing simply that heating effect which is produced by a hot body at any sensible distance. This heating effect has been shown by several expe riments to be subject to constant laws of reflection, &c. in a way close] l analogous to light ; b u t some im portant differenees lave been shown to exist, accord mg is the source of heat is luminous or not. From non-luminous sources, the heat produces a greater effect on bodies, in proportion to a peculiar ,fineness of tewure in their surface, without reference to colour. The heat from these sources is incapable of passing through glass Screens, except the glass become heated, when it becomes a radiating source. On the other band, from luMinous sources, it has been shown, that the effect is produced (more or less) it; proportion to the darkness of colour of the surface on which it acts; as also, that it is capable of passing directly through glass, in part; but that a consider able portion, (less, as the luthinosity is more intense) is intercepted. The distinction of circumstances by which these effects are defined, has, however, been involved in great. uncertainty. It was here that Mr. Powell took up the enquiry ; and in a series of experimpts detailed in a paper which was published in the Phil.. Trans. 1825, examined in connexion, the relationS of radi ant heat to the colour and texture of surfaces, and to the interceptive power of screens. He showed that When the source is luminous, that portion of the heat which is transmitted through glass, is also distin guished by the property of affecting bodies, according to their darkness of colour • whilst that which is stop ped affects them i n regart i 'to the absorptive texture of their surfaces. Hence it follows, that when a hot body is luminous, two distinct species ("heat emanate from it : one closely associated with the light, and, the other simple heat, the same as that emanating fro A n. non-luminous hot bodies. 'With respect to the for mer kind, the same author has published some . papers in the Quarterly Journal of Science, and m the Annals of Philosophy, in which he maintains the theory that, in exact analogy with the other pheno mena, it may be called the latent heat of light. With respect to the latter kind, tie general le. ‘w that it cannot radiate through glass, has been sUil7posi,ml in some eases n ot t o bald good. In particular one such case is inferred by,M, De La Roche, from some of his experiments ; in the instance of A subsequent interception by a second glass screen, which he con ceives the heat to traverse freely. To examine this point, is the object of Mr. PoWell's recent comutunica tton to the Royal Society. He has verified M. Dc La Roche's result ; but finds his explanation of it unnecessary ; and dn, in fact, it is not an exception, to the general law, but re a dily accounted for in confot:, mil}' with it. The subject of radiant heat has also been of late much attended to by Mr. Ritchie, A. M. Rector of the' Academy at Tain. His papers appear in t h e Edin hurgh Philosophical Journal, Nos. 22 anti 23. One of fiis positions is, that simple radiant can *averse glass of great tenuity.
